How can digital
make your switchgear smarter?
Better connectivity with great benefits
PM107047

Connectivity combined with IoT, brings more value in Power management.


More than remote control facilities, digital offers better versatility, especially
when it comes to adapt or setup products quickly and to answer your
customers specific needs.
Analytics and operational data allow enhanced asset management, and thus
optimized operating conditions for end users that can now anticipate
maintenance needs. Digitization benefits don’t end at interoperability, data or
predictive maintenance. It permits you to enhance safety, reliability and
efficiency of the solution provided. Adding more connectivity, practicality
and analytics will allow you to provide smarter switchgear and get a step
ahead in a more competitive world.

Schneider Electric's commitments

High quality components Based on our expertise in building Medium Voltage cubicles,
all the proposed components are designed to be fully
consistent with the others.
This assures complete interoperability, which has been tested
in our own Medium Voltage cubicles equipped with these
components.
Moreover, our industrialized processes and quality controls
guarantee the highest level of component quality to meet your
most demanding expectations.

Easy to integrate Increase your product knowledge and ensure easy integration
with our tools and training package, allowing you to be more
efficient in your business.
All necessary information on mounting and assembly is
supplied with each component.

Compatible with Given the demand for an increasing number of energy


production sources and the increasingly significant
smart grid applications obligations of network adaptability, operators have to know,
understand and act appropriately:
• Know the switchboards’ status at all times.
• Act with full knowledge of the facts.
Medium Voltage switchboards demand more remote
measurement and control capabilities.
You will find a whole range of modern monitoring and control
devices acting in full complementarity with Medium Voltage
switching devices.

Easy to source, Thanks to Schneider Electric’s direct presence in more than


100 countries, you can be sure to find the range of products
continuous and that meet your needs and comply perfectly with local
worldwide availability standards.
